Kendra woke up with a start. She looked around the room and saw the white hospital room surrounding her. She looked to her right and saw Bracken sitting next to her in a chair.

"Baby, go back to sleep. You need it." Bracken said softly and kissed her forehead. She slowly laid back down on the bed unsurely.

"Where's Imogen?" She asked hurriedly.

"She's right here." Bracken said and showed Kendra the baby in his arms. She slowly relaxed.

"What about James? Zach?"

"There with Gavin and your family. Okay? You have nothing to worry about but getting more sleep."

"Ya okay." She whispered sleepily. She closed her eyes and heard a chuckle before drifting off into a peaceful sleep.

She woke to the sound of Imogens cries and turned to see Bracken was gone but was replaced by Gavin. He went to pick the baby up and Kendra watched him. He looked so natural, he was meant to be a father. It fit him well.

"Hey." Her voice crack as she spoke.

He didn't answer her but only looked up with a glance before looking down at Imogen.

"There putting me back into the quiet box. I'm just trying to spend the time I can with them, you know?"

Kendra sat up with a start. There was NO way that would happen. He didn't deserve that at all! What kind of sick person would take that extreme measures when some of it was her fault?!

"Gavin, I'm not letting that happen! You don't deserve that!"

He swayed Imogen back and forth and successfully calmed her down. A tear rolled down his cheek. "They won't listen to you. Your grandfather has a sick idea of right and wrong. He thinks splitting me from my children is a good idea. And who am I to say it isn't. Just the man who kidnapped his Granddaughter and got her pregnant four times."

Kendra pulled him and Imogen into a hug. He hugged her tightly with the one arm he had free. She let him sob into her shoulder until Imogen let out a little cry. Gavin pulled away from her to consult his daughter.

"I thinks she's hungry." Gavin spoke softly.

"If you make the bottle I can feed her." Kendra said softly.

"No, I want to do it." He said.


She was getting checked out of the hospital today and it was the first time she was going to see anyone but Bracken and Gavin. She was nervous at the least. She felt like she had that one night at the Living Mirage when her parents had found out she had miscarried. It was the same type of fear of not knowing what to expect. The door opened and Gavin slid in. She walked over and wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a hug.

"I would've been happy with you, you know. I just can't go back, I don't think I ever could."

"I know." Gavin said and kissed her head and squeezed her tighter. "But you'll be much happy with him then you could ever be with me. I see the way you look at each other."

"You have something he doesn't." Kendra said sliding her fingers through his hair. "You were my first love." She kissed his cheek before going back to packing all the babies stuff. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Gavin walk over to the bassinet were Imogen or Emma is what they decided to call her and took the sleepy baby out of her crib.

"I can't stop thinking this might be one of the last times I see her." Gavin spoke softly.

"You're right." A new voice said. "It might be."

Kendra glared at her boyfriend. "No it won't, I'm talking to my grandparents or parent or whoever made that awful decision! He may have made mistakes but he is an excellent father and taking them away from him will do no good!" Kendra said sternly.

"I was the one who suggested it Kendra, you have no idea what he has done. He has blinded you in rose petals and kittens."

"I've done nothing to you." Gavin snapped.

"You have brought shame onto my family."

Gavin rolled his eyes, "Yes so lock me up in a prision then?"

"What does he mean?" Kendra asked Gavin.

"I did nothing harmful. I will tell you some other time."

"You think I will let her near you ever again! Never!" Bracken shouted.

So they went into endless bickering and once Kendra had had enough her entire family walked through the door. Both boys calmed right down.

"Gavin will not go into the quiet box, and I am allowed to see him if I would like! It is my life and you are acting no better then him by taking it away from me, Bracken!" Kendra said viciously.

Kendra bent over and picked up James who had run over to her in all the commotion and wiped the tears from his eyes. James hated it when people yelled. He clung to her as if she were a life raft in endless water.

Everyone's eyes were on her and she realized they had no idea what was going on so of course they were take Bracken's side. "That's what happening, whether any of you like it or not."

She then put on her smile and started to laugh and then to cry. "I'm sorry!" She sobbed "The hormones won't go away."

She was rushed by hugs and saved the best for last. Her little brother squeezed her so tightly she couldn't breathe but that didn't stop her from hugging him right back. She laughed and saw one unfamiliar face in her room.

"And who might you be?" She asked kindly.

"My name is Dylan." He glanced at Seth cautiously. "I'm Seth's boyfriend."

Kendra's eyebrows arched before turning to look at Seth. "I didn't know you liked boys. Honestly you've been keeping this from me the entire time! Do you know how much fun we could've had!"

Seth blushed, "Sorry."
